Review of the Xiaomi Mi Rearview Mirror Recorder MJHSJJLY01BY, which replaces the rear view mirror. Smart mirror Xiaomi Yi Smart Mirror Rearview (black): characteristics and instructions Xiaomi rear view mirror
Another useful new product has come out from Xiaomi, this time for a car, called YI Car Cam 2. As the name implies, this is a smart rear-view mirror with a built-in recorder. At first glance, nothing special, there are already many such devices on the market, let's take a closer look at what it can do.
Externally, YI Car Cam 2 is made, as usual, above all praise, minimalist design with durable housing made of plastic that will protect the device from mechanical damage and temperature changes. There is a slot for a micro SD memory card with support up to 64 GB and a separate slot for nano SIM, as well as a 3.5-inch audio output jack.
The functionality is also excellent, the device has 3 cameras, the main one records road events in high quality FullHD with a resolution of 1920x1080, in addition standard features recorder, this camera is able to monitor the distance of the car in front and the departure from the lane. The second camera looks into the interior, but with worse shooting quality at 480p, but in fact it doesn’t need more, it would only eat up extra free space. A nice bonus is the wireless camera, still with the same 480P, which can be directed anywhere, but is best used as a rear view camera for convenience when parking.
Inside there is a 4-core processor from MediaTek MT8665 with Cortex A53 cores and a frequency of up to 1.5 Ghz. manufactured at 28 nm. technical process. This chip was specially developed for automotive applications. on-board computers and similar equipment. The device has many built-in modules, such as: wi-fi, Bluetooth, GPS, as well as a modem for 3G and 4G networks.
Behind the mirror there is a 5-inch screen with an HD resolution of 1280x720 pixels; the screen can display all kinds of information on navigation, speed limits on a given section of the road, the current speed, display any cameras, and launch video and audio files. Support available voice control and many other useful functions. The YunOs operating system is responsible for this functionality.
The price of this Xiaomi YI Car Cam 2 is approximately 10,000 rubles, the price is certainly not small, but as the manufacturer assures, we get a set of functions that make driving a car more comfortable and safe. How convenient it really is is still a question. After all, they reach for the mirror in order to switch some modes or use navigation; in my opinion, this is not very convenient, and besides, it will be constantly stained with fingerprints from lovers of chebureks (well, at least for me that’s for sure): ), but why run audio files through the mirror when all cars have modern radios with support for multiple sources is not clear to me personally. Will there be Russian language support for voice control? I'm not saying that this is a useless device, on the contrary, it has many really useful and convenient functions that many people will like. As for me, it’s more convenient to use a smartphone for such functionality, which is always at hand.

Description of the smart mirror
We were pleased that the device comes in a black casing with touch display and a camera on the back. All the same, no matter what color car you install it in, the black surface will fit into any interior design.
DVR for us Xiaomi Smart RearView Mirror has become an indispensable assistant on the road, thanks to its new flagship intelligent voice interaction, which controls the majority of the device's functions. If you think that this will interfere with the driver's ability to control the car, you are mistaken, since speech can be stopped at any time when needed.
Additionally, a map created specifically for the vehicle is integrated into the smart mirror. It is capable of satisfying a large number of requests. So, we made sure that the map easily switches to display mode and changes the trajectory to the destination.
A distinctive feature of this model is that it has a built-in ADAS system that supports FCW, PVS and LDW. Once we were driving along the highway, and opposite us a cool jeep was flying at breakneck speed. The driver clearly did not calculate his strength and the car simply skidded into the oncoming lane. Our smart mirror immediately let us know about a critical situation on the road, and we were able to avoid a collision. And how many times did it inform us that we had crossed a double continuous line, thereby allowing us to turn right in time and not violate traffic rules.
By the way, the system allows you to archive video of an accident before and after the incident. The picture of the event can be reproduced in the rearview mirror itself or through an application on a smartphone online.
Thus, thanks to the built-in sensors this model Xiaomi collects information from outside and inside and warns if there is danger. In turn, the lens High Quality Allows you to take super clear pictures. An OV 1/2.9 image sensor equipped with high resolution is integrated into the mirror, thanks to which we record very high-quality video (080P/30FPS) even at poor lighting.

Thermal silica gel helps increase the speed of the process, and to enhance the effect, the developer has provided graphene, which allows you to expand the cooling area.
